Select language to translate this lyric
Every now and then a stranger will walk by
And they're always so inviting from time to time
They build you up
Make a castle way up high
But they always let you down after the ride
[Chorus:]
So don't ever leave em
Don't lie or deceive them
Don't hurt the ones who've loved you the most
You can take a trip by bus or by plane
Ride around the world in a big old fancy plane
Play to millions of people who know you by name
But the ones at home, they'll love you just the same
[Chorus]
[Smokin' Brett Resnick slide solo]
Don't make you any kind of big person
To walk around like you ain't got learning
Talk about a bird that you never seen flyin'
Bury the truth so you can live a lie
I wonder about the old folks at home
I wonder how they're getting along since I been gone
One day the grass will grow high and cover my bones
And I'll return to the place I call my own
And you can't ever say, son
That I forgot my raising
Don't hurt the ones who've loved you the most
And you can't ever say, son
That I forgot my raising
Don't hurt the ones who've loved you the most
